3-8 O-RING INSTALLATION RULE
1. Two (small and large) O-rings are attached in 18-52
GHz band Andrew/RFS direct mount antenna. Table 2
Show how to use small and Large O-Rings

2. 13/15 GHz band antenna does not have small O-ring
(Small O-ring is not used for Andrew/RFS direct mount
antenna).

3. If the small O-ring is used for ODU direct mount
installation, a gap may occur between ODU and antenna
for RF interface. This may cause transmit or receive
level down.
Table 2 How to use O-Rings
4. FRAME GROUNDING (1/2)
In mounting IDU and ODU, perform frame
grounding.

Location of frame grounding in each of the IDU
and ODU is shown in Fig. 1, and Fig.2
